An intimate luncheon for their friends was recently hosted at the South Forbes Bali Mansions by indefatigable Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng with EJ and Tess Litton. After a sumptuous and filling lunch catered by Astoria Plaza Suites, everyone was taken for a guided tour of the model units. With prominent interior designers Cynthia and Ivy Almario designing the interiors of the Coralia and Lovina model units, the guests were visibly impressed with everything they saw.
The exclusive community is indeed shaping up as the neighborhood of everyone’s dreams. As one of the guests remarked, having good friends as your neighbors and golf buddies – South Forbes offers a free golf membership to the 18-hole South Forbes Golf Club – is another good reason to enjoy the relaxing ambiance of Bali Mansions.
